Yep, pretty much the same loop that I took you on with the exception of the last bit of backroads. (Nor did we take the Timberline Lodge detour. Maybe another time.)

Funny story: I was driving home in my truck last night a bit late in the evening, around 10:30. I'm getting close to home and am headed down my street when out of the corner of my eye I catch a glimpse of a very familiar site in the glow of my headlights. The instantly recognizable shape of the red tank with the stripes highlighting its shape and the winged badge. WHAAAT? I did a quick double take to see a CB1100 sitting there just as I was driving past. I thought to myself, what are the chances that one of the guys that rode in from out of town to join us is staying just a few blocks from my house? I figured that had to be it, but just to be sure, I had to check the garage when I got home to make sure that my CB1100 was still parked inside, lol. As it turns out, it was Jonz's CB — his brother lives right on my street, just a stone's throw away. Pretty crazy.
